Conquer evil men by your gentle kindness, and make zealous men wonder at your goodness. Put the lover of legality to shame by your compassion. With the afflicted be afflicted in mind. Love all men, but keep distant from all men.—St. Isaac of Syria

The article discusses "which path to church unity". It discusses the Orthodox position as related to the heterodox. For those who haven't been called by God, it is the responsibility of the church to go forth and teach the Word. The Orthodox Church has taught for centuries of her existence that Truth is to be found in Holy Scriptures as interpreted by Holy Tradition and in the writings of the Church Fathers. It is also to be found in the Creed and statements promulgated by various Church councils.Orthodoxy sees Truth as protected in the Canons and Divine worship. Orthodoxy maintains the living Faith of the Apostles, and is the very criterion of Christianity that was established by Jesus Christ Himself.

Many have been called by God but preach and teach various "ways" foreign to the true faith.

I can see your point, but it would be a problem IF the RCC instructs the ECC to assimilate into the Orthodox Faith with centuries of set beliefs it may be difficult for them to adjust.....just saying.
